Rheology Principles, Measurements, and Applications Christopher W. MacoskoIf you use rheological measurements to characterize new materials, analyze non-Newtonian flow problems, or design plastic parts, or if you would like to use rheology to overcome a particular problem, this volume will prove invaluable to your research. Rheology: Principles, Measurements, and Applications presents an extremely practical, timely, and accessible three-dimensional account of the subject. It has been specifically designed to enable researchers to understand and apply information from the latest rheological literature to their own operations. Worked examples and exercises with solutions make it ideal for self-study. This book covers the essential criteria for selecting the best test types for various applications, accurately interpreting results, and determining other areas where rheology and rheological phenomena may be useful in your work. Section one develops important constitutive equations using simple deformations; section two explores shear and extensional rheometers, techniques for measuring material functions, and optical methods in rheology; and section three discusses applications of rheology to polymeric liquid and dispersions. Rheology: Principles, Measurements, and Applications will be of greatest interest to chemical engineers, chemists, polymer scientists, and mechanical engineers, as well as students in these and related fields.
Synopsis
Wenn Sie rheologische Messungen benutzen, um neue Materialien zu charakterisieren, das Flie verhalten nicht-Newtonscher Fl ssigkeiten zu untersuchen, Plastikteile zu entwerfen oder wenn Sie Rheologie nutzen wollen, um ein ganz spezielles Problem zu l sen, wird dieses praktische Buch f r Ihre Arbeit von unsch tzbarem Wert sein.
'Rheology: Principles, Measurements and Applications' ist ein sehr praktischer, aktueller und leicht verst ndlicher Bericht ber dieses Gebiet. Es ist besonders daraufhin ausgerichtet, da Wissenschaftler die neueste rheologische Literatur verstehen und in ihren eigenen Arbeiten anwenden k nnen.
Eine der Schwierigkeiten, die den gr ten Teil der rheologische Literatur f r die Anwender unverst ndlich macht, ist die tensorielle Behandlung. Um sie zu vermeiden, sind viele Rheologieb cher in nur einer Dimension geschrieben. Dieser Band jedoch macht den Tensor mit einer vereinfachten Notation leicht verst ndlich und erm glicht so den dreidimensionalen Zugang zur Praxis.
'Rheology: Principles, Measurements and Applications' ist von gro em Interesse sowohl f r Polymerforscher und Maschinenbauer als auch f r Studenten dieser und verwandter F cher.
